Rail–local collaboration is vital for railway emergency response, yet plan texts are unstructured and difficult to analyze quantitatively. This study proposes an integrated framework combining large language model-based semantic extraction, dual-view knowledge graph construction, topology-based cascading failure simulation, and multidimensional resilience evaluation. Emergency plan texts are transformed into structured Triplet++ collaboration records and used to build two weighted networks: a railway-internal network and a full-domain rail–local network. Cascading failure is modeled through progressive loss of coordination nodes under multiple attack strategies. The Resilience Gain Coefficient assesses the relative value of cross-domain collaboration, while an entropy-weighted Composite Resilience Index measures absolute resilience. Experiments on seven railway emergency scenarios show that reasoning-guided extraction significantly improves the recovery of entities, relations, and cross-domain edges. Results reveal conditional resilience gains from rail–local collaboration: it enhances tolerance to random disturbances but may increase vulnerability to targeted attacks due to bridge-node dependence. Phase, profession, and hierarchy analyses further identify weak activation–response intervals, professional collaboration gaps, and inefficient command chains. These findings provide actionable structural evidence for improving cross-domain emergency plans.
Objective The rapid expansion of China's high-speed railway network has imposed increasingly stringent requirements on environmental safety protection. Foreign object intrusion into the railway clearance zone poses a serious threat to operational safety, particularly in high-risk areas such as tunnels, cuttings and mountainous sections that are prone to rockfalls, debris flows and landslides. Existing single-sensor monitoring systems often suffer from high false alarm and missed detection rates under adverse weather or illumination conditions, limiting their reliability. To address this limitation, this study proposes a geometric-prior-driven multi-sensor fusion method that integrates LiDAR and camera data. The method leverages the geometric constraints of the railway clearance envelope to improve robustness, reduce false alarms and achieve zero missed detection of small obstacles in complex environments. Methods The proposed system adopts an "independent perception + decision-level fusion" architecture. On the LiDAR side, a digital ground height model is constructed through spatial partitioning and dynamic modeling, enabling adaptive terrain estimation across complex track environments. Obstacle candidates are extracted by calculating relative height differences with respect to the ground model and applying density-based clustering. To mitigate severe weather interference, a multi-feature noise filtering mechanism is introduced, incorporating reflection intensity, echo patterns, spatial neighborhood consistency and temporal stability. On the camera side, YOLOv8 is employed as the two-dimensional (2D) detection network to identify targets, with improved small-object recall due to its anchor-free design and efficient backbone architecture. Data fusion is guided by geometric priors: three-dimensional (3D) LiDAR candidates are projected onto the image plane and matched with 2D bounding boxes based on intersection-over-union and spatial consistency. The matched candidates are then processed by a lightweight neural network (approximately 2.4 & times;10 & sup3; parameters) that outputs fusion confidence scores. A thresholding step combined with non-maximum suppression generates the final detection results. To ensure real-time performance, the entire pipeline is accelerated using GPU-based KD-tree and octree indexing together with CUDA kernels, significantly reducing computational overhead. Results and Discussion Extensive validation was conducted through both laboratory and field experiments across multiple railway environments. Six rounds of large-scale experiments were carried out at the National Railway Track Test Center, the Xinjin testing base and operational sections of the Chongqing-Kunming and Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong high-speed railways. The experimental conditions included clear weather, daytime and nighttime illumination, heavy rainfall up to 32 mm/h, strong light interference exceeding 20,000 lx, fog (visibility 500 m), thick fog (200 m) and dense fog (50 m). The results indicate that under clear and rainy conditions, the system achieved zero missed detections for obstacles with an edge length as small as 20 cm within a monitoring range of 70 m along the forward and lateral clearance boundaries. Even under heavy rainfall and strong light interference, the missed detection rate remained negligible, while the false alarm frequency averaged only 0.78 occurrences per day per monitoring site. Compared with single-sensor baseline systems, the geometric-prior-driven fusion approach reduced false alarms by more than 60% and improved mean average precision (mAP) by 4-6 percentage points. In fog conditions, performance degradation was observed due to laser diffraction effects; however, the fusion strategy still outperformed single-modality detectors by maintaining stable recall through complementary visual information. The geometric prior plays a crucial role by restricting detection within the clearance envelope, effectively eliminating irrelevant candidates and guiding cross-modal matching. Consequently, only geometrically consistent targets are retained, improving both detection accuracy and computational efficiency. Furthermore, the lightweight neural network is suitable for real-time edge deployment, achieving an end-to-end processing latency of less than 130 ms on embedded devices with 16 TOPS computing capability. Conclusions This study presents a geometric-prior-driven LiDAR-camera fusion method for monitoring foreign object intrusion in railway environments. By incorporating clearance constraints and track geometry into both LiDAR-based obstacle detection and cross-modal fusion, the proposed approach demonstrates strong adaptability to complex terrain and robustness under adverse weather conditions. Field experiments confirm that the method achieves zero missed detections for small obstacles while maintaining a low false alarm rate, thereby meeting the stringent safety requirements of railway monitoring systems. Future work will extend the framework by integrating heterogeneous sensors such as four-dimensional millimeter-wave radar to further enhance detection performance in dense fog and snowfall. Additional experiments will also be conducted in plateau and mountainous regions to improve environmental adaptability and strengthen the reliability and scalability of railway safety monitoring systems.
Constructing a static exterior model of railway passenger station is a preliminary and crucial step in achieving a digital twin station. Station modeling often relies on manual techniques, requiring significant labor for stations spanning tens of thousands of square meters. While the interior decoration is symmetrical, the asymmetrical placement of equipment often leads to confusion in manual modeling. This paper proposes a novel station static model reconstruction method - MSCRAGS (Mobile vehicle-Sparse Sampling-Colmap-Resolution adjustment-Gaussian Splatting). The MSCRAGS integrates the requirements for flexible control of static exterior models by utilizing mobile vehicle for data collection and incorporates the sparse multi-view spatial sampling approach. It involves collecting multi-height and multi-angle appearance color data of passenger operation elements to construct preliminary point clouds. Subsequently, 3d Gaussian splatting is employed for rendering, achieving high-fidelity reconstruction of production elements. Moreover, according to the requirements for the precision control of static exterior models, the rendering effects are reshaped with resolution adjustment to obtain static exterior models of station production elements at various resolutions. Experiments conducted at Qinghe Station demonstrate that compared to other state-of-art modeling methods, our approach significantly reduces modeling time and improves modeling accuracy, showing superior performance in modeling high-fidelity indices.

The purpose of the paper is to elaborate on the current research status and team research progress on the perception of safety situation in high-speed rail operation environment and to propose directions for further research in the future.Design/methodology/approachIn terms of the mechanism and spatio-temporal evolution law of the main influencing factors on the safety of high-speed rail operation environments, the research status is elaborated, and the latest research progress and achievements of the team are introduced. This paper elaborates on the research status and introduces the latest research progress and achievements of the team in terms of meteorological, perimeter and external environmental situation perception methods for high-speed rail operation.FindingsBased on the technical route of “situational awareness evaluation warning active control,” a technical system for monitoring the safety of high-speed train operation environments has been formed. Relevant theoretical and technical research and application have been carried out around the impact of meteorological disasters, perimeter intrusion and the external environment on high-speed rail safety. These works strongly support the improvement of China’s railway environmental safety guarantee technology.Originality/valueWith the operation of CR450 high-speed trains with a speed of 400 km per hour and the application of high-speed train autonomous driving technology in the future, new and higher requirements have been put forward for the safety of high-speed rail operation environments. The following five aspects of work are urgently needed: (1) Research the single factor disaster mechanism of wind, rain, snow, lightning, etc. for high-speed railways with a speed of 400 kms per hour, and based on this, study the evolution characteristics of multiple safety factors and the correlation between the high-speed driving safety environment, revealing the coupling disaster mechanism of multiple influencing factors; (2) Research covers multi-source data fusion methods and associated features such as disaster monitoring data, meteorological information, route characteristics and terrain and landforms, studying the spatio-temporal evolution laws of meteorological disasters, perimeter intrusions and external environmental hazards; (3) In terms of meteorological disaster situation awareness, research high-precision prediction methods for meteorological information time series along high-speed rail lines and study the realization of small-scale real-time dynamic and accurate prediction of meteorological disasters along high-speed rail lines; (4) In terms of perimeter intrusion, research a multi-modal fusion perception method for typical scenarios of high-speed rail operation in all time, all weather and all coverage and combine artificial intelligence technology to achieve comprehensive and accurate perception of perimeter security risks along the high-speed rail line and (5) In terms of external environment, based on the existing general network framework for change detection, we will carry out research on change detection and algorithms in the surrounding environment of high-speed rail.
In recent years, the safety issues of high-speed railways have remained severe. The intrusion of personnel or obstacles into the perimeter has often occurred in the past, causing derailment or parking, especially in the case of bad weather such as fog, haze, rain, etc. According to previous research, it is difficult for a single sensor to meet the application needs of all scenario, all weather, and all time domains. Due to the complementary advantages of multi-sensor data such as images and point clouds, multi-sensor fusion detection technology for high-speed railway perimeter intrusion is becoming a research hotspot. To the best of our knowledge, there has been no review of research on multi-sensor fusion detection technology for high-speed railway perimeter intrusion. To make up for this deficiency and stimulate future research, this article first analyzes the situation of high-speed railway technical defense measures and summarizes the research status of single sensor detection. Secondly, based on the analysis of typical intrusion scenarios in high-speed railways, we introduce the research status of multi-sensor data fusion detection algorithms and data. Then, we discuss risk assessment of railway safety. Finally, the trends and challenges of multi-sensor fusion detection algorithms in the railway field are discussed. This provides effective theoretical support and technical guidance for high-speed rail perimeter intrusion monitoring.
Due to adjustments to the operation plan of guided trains at high-speed railway stations, a large amount of information is inevitably displayed, sometimes with delays, omissions, and misalignments. The effective management of guidance information can provide important support for the personnel flow operation of high-speed railway stations. Aiming to meet the requirements of high real-time and high accuracy of guided job control, a closed-loop control method based on a guided job is proposed, which provides enhanced text detection and recognition in a target area. Firstly, using the introduction of the triplet attention mechanism in YOLOv5 and the addition of fusion modules, the feature pyramid network is used to enhance the effective feature and feature interactions between the modules to improve the detection speed of the display. Then, the text on the guide screen is recognized and extracted in combination with the PaddleOCR model, and then, the results are proofread against the original plan to adjust the screen information. Finally, the effectiveness and feasibility of the method are verified by experimental data, with the accuracy of the improved model reaching 90.6% and the speed reaching 1 ms, which meets the requirement of real-time closed-loop control of Screen-Based Guidance Operations.
Station daily operation management is an essential task in the railway industry. To enhance the efficiency of this process, we propose a digital twins four-dimensional model for daily station operations (DTSDO) in this study. The DTSDO model consists of four distinct components: Passenger Station Physical Entity (PSPE), Passenger Station Virtual Entity (PSVE), Digital Twins Connections (DTCS), and Daily Operation Twins Services (DOTS). The DTSDO is driven by the fundamental data of passengers and trains, and it uses the eEPCD to link and control the Six essential production elements within the station based on a time sequence. The communication between the PSPE and PSVE is established via the HTTP protocol. The DOTS accurately portrays the virtual representation of the reality passenger station. Furthermore, we have validated the DTSDO model using Qinghe station as a specific case study. We created a one-to-one model of the station and tested its comprehensive functionalities.

Secondly, the decision variables in each particle are the sorted order according to the optimized parameters and some main steps on the multiple objectives PSO algorithm are also provided to handle with the corresponding problem. Thirdly, numerical results highlight that the multiple objectives PSO algorithm can provide four optimal trajectories for four safety supervisors and it is key to analyze the Pareto front and the Pareto solutions during the whole evolutionary process.

Platform end security control is of utmost importance in railway passenger station safety management. Station personnel track intruders using a single-line LiDAR. This paper analyzes the characteristics of intruder targets at the platform end and the point cloud features of intruders collected by the single-line LiDAR. An algorithm for tracking intruder targets at the platform end of the single-line LiDAR point cloud is proposed in this paper. By integrating spatial and temporal factors, spatial data processing is conducted in the first stage to process the single-frame data and construct multi-arc rectangles of intruder targets. In the second stage, data correlation calculations are performed on the radar frames based on the time series, resulting in a correlation matrix. The Hungarian algorithm is employed for multi-object correlation between frames. Specifically, for one-to-many matching situations, the dynamic time warping method is used to associate and match the arcs within the multi-arc rectangles, enabling secondary matching for inter-frame target alignment and achieving intruder target tracking at the platform end using the single-line LiDAR point cloud. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can track platform intruder targets.
Deep learning techniques continue to be used in various applications in recent years. However, when it is difficult to obtain adequate training samples, the performance of the depth model will degrade. Although few-shot learning and data enhancement techniques can relieve this dilemma, the diversity of real data is too large to simulate. To tackle this challenge, we study a novel method, Data Augmentation Scheme For Few-Shot Object Detection (DA-FSOD), to improve the efficiency of model training on visual tasks. Specifically, to expand data augmentation space, we build a data augmentation operation pool (DAOP) based on several common-applied image process operations. Then we propose a novel data augmentation scheme, the series and parallel connection scheme, which superimposes the effects of different operations to generate diverse variants. To further explore and utilize the deep feature information, we leverage the semantic information of input image in model and propose imposed semantic data augmentation which augments training set semantically via deep features of augmented variants. The proposed method successfully enhanced the model performance. We validated our approach using extensive experiments on the domain of few-shot object detection. The results showed remarkable gains compared to state-of-the-art methods.
